Re: [Announce] DropN900 - the maemo 5 DropBox client
I dont have any issue right now. My app was authorized long ago.
But there's some changes in authentication API. New user might have problems. If I can manage some time I'll research on it. Anyone interested can check these links I thought useful. Core API version 0 migration guide REST API |
Re: [Announce] DropN900 - the maemo 5 DropBox client
Anyone know how to migrate dropn900 to api 1? I tried tinkering with py files, but it's too much for me ;) And i'd really like to be able to use dropbox on my n900... Yes, yes, i know... I should've installed it earlier, but only recently i've got a need to use it... So... Anyone has any ideas?

DropN900 for new dropbox API

Over the last few weeks i ported DropN900 to the new dropbox API
Warning This may destroy your dropbox or mess up your N900 root file system. Use it at your own risk, make a backup if you want to be safe. I didn't destroy my dropbox or N900 root filesystem with it so far. Update 30-06-13 Version 0.2.2
20-05-13 Version 0.2.1
05-05-13 Version 0.2.0

Installing
Authentication The new dropbox API uses a different approach for authentication. You have to grant DropN900 access to your dropbox via the dropbox website. When you start DropN900 you will see the following window: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/...501-132720.png The "Take me to authentication page" button is grayed out until DropN900 has generated a request token with the dropbox api. Press the button and log into your dropbox account in the browser and give DropN900 access to your dropbox. After closing the browser window, press the "Request auth token" button: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/...501-133024.png After that DropN900 receives an access token and logs into your dropbox account. That access token is stored until you press the "Reset Current Authentication" button in the settings window. Bugs

Re: DropN900 for new dropbox API
memeces: Thx for your screenshot. But i mean the button for choosing the remote folder. Have a look at the first post of this thread, third picture.
I'll have a look at this issue on weekend. Hopefully i'll get ready to put a new version of dropn900 into extras/devel on weekend, too. |
Re: DropN900 for new dropbox API
Marshall Banana. All right. I was not getting any text on that button. But I cannot send you a screenshot because I have already installed your upgrading. Now it connects to the DropBox server and reads the files there but the synchronization is not working. It never ends. Looking at the log file I get a never ending list of errors, always with the dollowing message:
[SYNC ERROR]: Error parsing path in SyncResult.check_local_path() Does anybody have a suggestion? As an alternative for DropBox I have tried Ubuntu One, but the programs for the N900 do not allow for synchronization, as far as I know. |
Re: DropN900 for new dropbox API
memeces: thx for testing.
Please try the following: Check the file /home/user/.dropn900/settings.ini, it should be something like this: [download] default-folder = /home/user/MyDocs/DropN900/ no-dialog = true [automated-sync] only-sync-on-wlan = false update-interval = 10 sync-path = / enabled = false [authentication] store-auth = true Next: Start DropN900 and open the settings window. Set a local path, e. g. /home/user/MyDocs/DropN900. Under synchronizing press the button with no text, which we already talked about, and select the root folder /. Store the settings and check the settings.ini file again. If your settings are correct and you still cannot sync plz report back and i'll make a dropn900 version with extended logging. |
Re: [Announce] DropN900 - the maemo 5 DropBox client
I needed to install two additional packages to make this work:
python-setuptools python-openssl After that, though, it worked just fine. |

I did not succeed installing the two python packages. I am not very familiar with Linux commands. With what I tried I got the following error messages: Code:
